Initial Storyboard


Here I have sketched out a preliminary storyboard for 'Sir' Terry Timepiece (please excuse the glaring misspelling of 'initial'). I decided on a small sketch in where Terry tries to do his duty and wake up the boy in his bed but as he does so, realises that the boy is ignoring him and starts to get more and more frustrated and angry as he tries fruitlessly so wake up the snoozing boy. Eventually this frustration and anger cause him to stray to close to the edge of the chest of drawers which inevitably leads Terry to his demise as he falls from the dizzying heights of the bedside cabinet and onto the floor below with a crash. 



To gain a better visual depiction of how this scene would look, I decided to colour this storyboard in Photoshop which can be seen below.

  1. This is great - but as I have said in class, you need to concentrate on the character rather than a story - all the other pieces within the animation will not be considered in the marking, just making work for yourself.

  2. Absolutely, I have been thinking about changing the storyboard somewhat, especially after finding a very similar idea on YouTube (which you can see in the more recent post). I want to get the character right rather than concentrating on the environment. Thank you for your comments, they are very helpful :)
